Abstract:
A system and method allows panels to be dragged into position using an icon displayed on a selector user interface or from another position, and as the panels are moved over a position in which another panel is displayed, the other panel, and panels in subsequent positions, are animated to move out of the position over which the panel being dragged is positioned.
Abstract:
A system and method provides a tabbed user interface in which labels may be used to select one of a plurality of data elements, but only the selected label is displayed with a tab, the other labels being displayed without a tab. Feedback, such as by underlining a label when the user hovers the mouse over it, is provided to allow the user to identify that an action will occur if one of the non-tabbed labels is clicked.
Abstract:
A receiver is optimized by adapting parameters of components within the receiver. Various component parameters are adapted by using either a least means squared algorithm or a steepest descent algorithm. The taps of a decision feedback equalizer can be adapted by using either a least means squared algorithm or a steepest descent algorithm. The gain value of a linear equalizer and the input of a digital to analog converter coupled to the linear equalizer are also adapted through the least means squared algorithm or a steepest descent algorithm. A variable gain amplifier is also capable of being adapted through the use of the least means squared algorithm. Clock offsets are also configured by use of a steepest descent algorithm.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for magnifying selected portions of visual information on a screen is provided. In response to receiving first user input, displaying, within a first bounded region that encloses a first portion of visual information, (a) the first portion at a same magnification level as the visual information that is outside of the first bounded region, and (b) a visual indication of a second bounded region that encloses a second portion of the visual information. In response to receiving second user input, displaying, within the first bounded region, the second portion of the visual information at a magnification level that is greater than the magnification level of the visual information that is outside of the first bounded region.
Abstract:
Web content administration information can be discovered by users through using an administration tool that provides a way for web sites and/or applications to automatically provide the administration tool with information on how to connect to the administration service. A user specifies a URI that is associated with a content source for which administrative services are desired. The administration tool queries the content source for administration information that is associated with the desired administration services. The administration tool typically forms a URI in response to the administration information such that the URI determines a connection (or connection information) to the administration service that is associated with the determined administration information.
Abstract:
A web page generator dynamically and implicitly generates localized web content. A web developer can mark the content of a page (including controls and literal content) with resource keys, and can dynamically process this request by dynamically substituting the marked content with localized content. Multiple properties of the controls within a page may be localized.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for client-side callbacks to server events are described. In one aspect, a Web server receives a message indicating a client-side event. The client-side event is associated with a specific component of a client resource. The specific component is one of multiple static components of the client resource. A server-side component generates a response to the message. The server-side component implements at least a subset of logic of the specific component. Server-side logic corresponding to other ones of the static components that are different than the specific component is not used to generate the response.
Abstract:
A receiver is optimized by adapting parameters of a linear equalizer component within the receiver. Data decisions and error decisions are generated. These data decision and error decisions are used to derive an error rate of data by measuring the number of margin hits that occur. A balance value is also calculated from the data decisions and the error decisions. The balance value is used to update parameters of the linear equalizer. The updating of the parameter continues until the number of margin hits has been minimized.

Abstract:
Task-oriented management is provided for managing server configuration settings. The server configuration settings are logically grouped into a set of tasks. User interface elements are mapped to each task in the set of tasks. The task represented by a user interface element is also mapped to one or more of the server configuration settings. The task list is displayed that includes each of the mapped tasks. When a task is selected, a user interface page module is displayed. Using the user interface page module, the server configuration settings that correspond to the task are modified as the task is completed when the user selects corresponding actions as the user is guided through the task.
